Starting With Chaos Physique

Chapter 34 The Dao and the Dharma Are the Same, Everyone in the Gu Family Greets the Divine Son

The vast and imposing group of young members from the Gu family appeared in the skies above Northern Wilderness City.

Ancient warships, stained with blood and bearing countless scars from blades, spears, and swords, seemed as though they had journeyed through time, killing all in their path.

The young men and women standing aboard the warships radiated an innate air of supreme confidence. Though unintentional, their presence was starkly distinct from the cultivators below.

This was the confidence born of deep heritage.

Behind the warships were ancient wild beasts of immense power, their bodies covered in colorful scales that shimmered with divine brilliance—extraordinary in every way.

From within a chariot pulled by nine divine beasts resembling phoenixes, a faint silhouette of a graceful figure could be seen seated. This drew fiery gazes of admiration and reverence from many young cultivators below.

“That’s Gu Minghuang, the unparalleled prodigy of the Gu family, a supreme talent of her generation. She’s immensely powerful and unmatched in combat. She once battled the princess of the Northern Profound Dao Realm’s First Dynasty for three days and three nights, ultimately subduing her!”

“And that young man behind the nine divine beasts—he looks like a God of Light himself! His entire being shines so brightly you can’t even look directly at him!”

“So, this is the foundation of an immortal family? Terrifying! I feel like every one of these young people has boundless potential!”

The entire Northern Wilderness City was abuzz with discussion, stunned by the sudden arrival of the Gu family.

It had to be said—their earlier display was utterly overwhelming. Using supreme divine power to open a spatial passage and directly traverse multiple realms was shocking.

Ordinary top-tier sects would need to obediently rely on teleportation formations for such travel, transferring multiple times along the way.

Gu Minghuang sat in the chariot, her gaze sweeping over the people below. She noticed their looks of admiration but paid them no mind—such gazes were all too familiar to her.

As a Divine Daughter of the Gu family, her status was beyond measure.

However, her elegant brows slightly furrowed as she softly remarked, “Divine Son, it seems like he isn’t among these people.”

On the way to Northern Wilderness City, she had heard that Gu Zhenxuan had provoked the Divine Son, only to have his Dao heart shattered and his future completely destroyed.

Among her peers in the Gu family, Gu Zhenxuan might not have been the strongest, but he was undoubtedly among the top contenders.

Even she found him to be a formidable opponent, with their chances of victory evenly matched in battle.

But the result… was horrifying and sent chills down her spine.

According to the recording stone, the Divine Son had defeated him with just two moves—neither of which were particularly profound or mysterious.

“I intended to pay my respects to the Divine Son immediately, but it seems we’ll need to find his residence first,” said Gu Guangming, seated in another chariot pulled by the nine divine beasts. Hearing Gu Minghuang’s words, he smiled bitterly.

He had seen the recording stone too.

First came shock, then chills, followed by fear, and finally a mix of despair and resignation.

In truth, it was simply a matter of coming to terms with the facts.

“No wonder the clan elders always emphasize not to compete with the Divine Son… After all, he’s a monster—born to suppress eternity and leave everyone else gasping for air,” Gu Minghuang murmured softly.

Their conversation was quiet and did not reach those below.

Meanwhile, Northern Wilderness City was bustling with excitement.

The sudden arrival of the Gu family signaled that something monumental was about to happen.

For an immortal family to send so many of its young members, it was inconceivable that there wouldn’t be some significant purpose.

“Could it be related to the Northern Wilderness Sacred Tomb? But how could a single sacred tomb alarm an immortal family?”

Back in the building where Gu Changsheng had been, a suspicious-looking cultivator who had been deep in thought suddenly slapped his forehead in realization. “I remember now! I’ve seen that person before! That day, the Nine Dragons Chariot was driven by him!”

“So, that young man in white… is the Divine Son of the Gu family!”

Realizing this, the cultivators present were stunned.

No wonder the Dragon Clan members had been so humiliated, even thrown out of the window without dignity!

The owner of the building immediately became excited. “Where did the Gu family’s Divine Son sit earlier?” he asked eagerly.

He had already made up his mind to preserve that seat carefully.

When the Gu family’s Divine Son attained the Dao, that spot would become a historical relic, drawing countless admirers from future generations.

It had to be said—this man was clever. He knew the Gu family’s Divine Son was destined to become one of the most terrifying figures of his era.

Elsewhere, Gu Changsheng had just returned to his palace when the mighty group of Gu family members arrived shortly after, stopping outside the palace complex.

Northern Wilderness City was vast, spanning a thousand li, but without a no-fly formation, it took only a few breaths for the Gu family’s group to arrive on ancient warships and exotic beasts.

Over a hundred people—each brimming with vitality and immense strength—had arrived. Thankfully, the city lord had anticipated this and prepared accommodations for them in advance.

“Greetings, Divine Son!”

Everyone’s expressions were filled with excitement and reverence as they saluted the figure before them.

It was their first time meeting Gu Changsheng, yet they instinctively knew he was their family’s Divine Son.

Standing there, he seemed to exist in an entirely different world.

He was unfathomable, like a patch of chaos, yet also appeared to have merged with heaven and earth.

His Dao was natural; every move contained the profound truths of the universe.

“Gu Minghuang greets the Divine Son!”

“Gu Guangming greets the Divine Son!”

Gu Minghuang and Gu Guangming also saluted, then exchanged astonished glances.

“Even the elders with the deepest cultivation don’t display such effortless mastery of Dao. The Divine Son is indeed as the rumors say—unfathomable!”

They were deeply shocked.

Gu Changsheng hadn’t expected the Gu family to arrive so quickly. He nodded slightly and said, “There’s no need for formalities.”

After all, this hunting conference was led by him, and these people would soon follow his command.
